Q is for Quest The letter Q does not lack words to write about. But Q did not place a word into my head to let my consciousness flow. Starting at the blank screen, the word Quest popped into my head. Very fitting, after all today I am on a Quest to find some inspiration. Last year … Continue reading Q is for Quest #AtoZChallenge

P is for Permission #AtoZChallenge
P is for Permission I have the tendency to ask for permission. Until recently, until coming to the realisation, I had the unexplained need for an acknowledgement of my decisions, a green light, a "go ahead!" All of these things often delayed me in my actions, put me on a detour or kept me from … Continue reading P is for Permission #AtoZChallenge

M is for Mmm #AtoZChallenge
M is for Mmm My A to Z muse seems to be on a break for the letter M.

None of those words really stuck, at … Continue reading M is for Mmm #AtoZChallenge

J is for Job #AtoZChallenge
J is for Job For some reason today I am going to write about Job or Jobs. Strange how these words end up popping up in my head...

I is for Invest #AtoZChallenge
I is for Invest Do we invest enough in our future? In our businesses? In our education? In our happiness?

My tuition fees, which … Continue reading I is for Invest #AtoZChallenge
H is for Help #AtoZChallenge
H is for Help Helping others is something of a natural habit of mine. When asked I will help the elderly lady read the price tags in the supermarket. Often people ask me to get them some product placed on a high shelf that they cannot reach themselves. Sometimes I will give uncollected advice when … Continue reading H is for Help #AtoZChallenge
